The Oak Ridge Police Department has identified a robbery suspect who allegedly stole $56 in cash and 387 oxycontin pills from the Kmart pharmacy last week.
The suspect has been identified as Jeramiah Frederick Webb, 35, of Morgan County, ORPD Lt. Robin Smith said Wednesday. Webb’s last known address was in Lancing, Smith said.
Smith said the suspect gave a note to a pharmacy clerk at the Kmart on South Illinois Avenue at about 9:45 a.m. Feb. 26, demanding money and Percocet. He allegedly fled on foot with the money and oxycontin.
Smith said he is not aware of any weapon being displayed during the robbery, and no one was hurt.
Police have taken out warrants against Webb, and they described him as a white man, 6’1″ and 160 pounds, with dark hair.
Kay Williamson says
put a 100 reward out for him and every pill head in town would be calling in to tell you where he was at!!!!
Fishman says
ORPD is just about moved their force to Scarborough looking for him the last few days, Why dont they post a photo of him and a Reward ???
Sarah Johnson says
I think that it is a really good idea for pharmacies to have all narcotics stored in timed-lock safes.
Denny Phillips says
The K-Mart pharmacy was robbed again at gunpoint on Tuesday afternoon/evening. Don’t know if the two incidents were related.
John Huotari says
I have requested more information on the Tuesday night incident, including whether it was related to the robbery last week, but I don’t have any information to share yet. I’ll let you know as soon as I do.
